Acredita-se na atividade fisica como uma forma de restaurar a saude dos efeitos nocivos que a rotina estressante do trabalho/estudo traz. O estudo constitui uma pesquisa transversal que objetiva analisar as associacoes da pratica de atividades esportivas na qualidade de vida dos individuos. A amostra foi constituida por 107 professores, 111 funcionarios e 638 estudantes da Universidade Catolica de Pelotas (UCPel), totalizando 863 participantes. Foram utilizados como instrumentos o WHOQOL-breve/OMS para avaliar a qualidade de vida e questionario de atividades fisicas habituais traduzido e modificado por NahasNuPAF/UFSC, 2001. Do total, 394 sao do sexo masculino e 469 do sexo feminino. Destes, 313 sao moderadamente ativos, 210 inativos, 207 ativos e 136 sao muito ativos. Pode-se observar que, em media, quanto mais ativa a pessoa e, melhor sua qualidade de vida. Alem disso, dentre as diferencas na qualidade de vida das pessoas que praticam atividades fisicas comparadas com as que nao praticam, nao estao apenas os aspectos de saude fisica, mas tambem aspectos psicologicos e cognitivos. Estes resultados servem de estimulo a profissionais de diferentes areas para incentivarem e apoiarem a definicao de rotinas de atividades fisicas para seus pacientes.read more
